1870 Bitter with Australian Hops.
An unforgettable best bitter adapted from a London brewery in 1880.
Bringing together a subtle and delicate balance of English malt and the new world zing of Australian hops.

Bottle. A dense, creamy, off-white head of two-fingers size forms over a clear golden body. Some floaties, and nice curtains. The aroma is pretty weak, with citrusy hops and a touch of grass and pine cones. The flavor has some bitterness, but not enough I think. Grass, pine cones, pineapple and some citrus notes. Canned fruits. Malts as well. Medium to full body with too much carbonation. Short hoppy finish. Not bad, but far from interesting. 140418
